Welcome to your match thread for a rare Tuesday night match-up between Orlando City SC (4-1-3, 15 points) and the San Jose Earthquakes (3-5-1, 10 points). This is the only meeting between the teams in 2021 and the first time the teams have met since 2019.
City is coming off an emotional 3-2 victory against Toronto FC on Saturday night, which was considered a road match despite being in Exploria Stadium. Junior Urso’s late goal provided the winning margin. San Jose drew 0-0 at Austin FC in the expansion side’s first ever home match.
